Lovell® Government Services has announced a new partnership with Northgate® Technologies Inc. (NTI), creator of the NEBULAE® SRS. Lovell will be the federal distribution partner to support sales through government healthcare systems such as the Veterans Health Administration (VHA), the Military Health System (MHS), and Indian Health Services (IHS).
Lovell Government Services is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and trusted federal vendor since 2013. Lovell is a two-time Inc. 5000 honoree, ranked in the top 10 percent of America’s fastest-growing privately owned businesses in 2020 and 2021. They partner with medical, dental, and pharmaceutical companies looking to better serve Veteran and military patient populations, increase their federal revenue stream, and win government contracts.
Northgate Technologies, Inc. is a global innovator of high-quality, minimally invasive surgery medical devices used for stone management and the surgical environment. Their products provide safe, efficient, and cost-effective medical solutions that enhance minimally invasive surgical procedures and help improve patient outcomes.
From the NTI product portfolio comes the NEBULAE® SRS (Laparoscopic Smoke Removal System). The NEBULAE® SRS is the only closed-loop laparoscopic smoke removal device that can maintain pneumoperitoneum while removing surgical smoke using no additional CO₂, reducing CO₂ gas management and costs. In 2022, the NEBULAE® SRS was awarded Innovation of the Year through the Society of Laparoscopic & Robotic Surgeons. NTI and Lovell will focus on bringing this product specifically to government healthcare.
As NTI’s Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) Vendor, Lovell is excited to bring this unique solution to federal healthcare providers. NTI was recently approved for the Department of Veterans Affairs’ Federal Supply Schedule (FSS), and is pending addition to the Defense Logistics Agency’s Electronic Catalogue for Medical Supply Chain (ECAT) and the DoD’s Distribution and Pricing Agreement (DAPA). This allows government customers to purchase the NEBULAE® SRS for the best possible price. In addition, placing products on contract vehicles with an SDVOSB contract holder streamlines the acquisition process while helping government agencies meet their SDVOSB procurement goals.
“This is a very significant partnership for Lovell Government Services. As a federal SDVOSB vendor, our mission is to serve the government by providing the best medical equipment at the best price. NTI’s NEBULAE SRS is going to help us fulfill this mission, enhancing patient care and surgical procedures while providing cost-savings to federal medical facilities.” Chris Lovell, Chief Executive Officer, Lovell Government Services.
“We are excited to partner with Lovell to help Veterans, Military, and Indian Health Services gain faster and easier access to technology revolutionizing laparoscopic surgery for patients, clinicians, and providers.” David McDonough, Vice President and General Manager, Northgate Technologies Inc..
